???inflight with Kirks F16, if the rises more than mach1.6
the overspeed warning occurs and the F16 goes faster
and faster. not possible to throttle down. the Fuelburn
rises to more than 500 Gallon per minute. if the tanks
are empty the engine shut down and it goes back to
the earth .  Has anybody else observed this behaivor??????

I don't have the specific F16 but another one downloaded from fsplanet.com and I have not experience any problems reaching speeds of up to mach 2 at high altitudes. Mach 4 occures just before overstressing the aircraft and actually destroying it if you fly full throttle and descending in a steep angle. It could be something in the flight dynamics.

Yes i think to. it must be a problem with the
flightdynamics but who can modify it ????
